Magnetic bearing system is frequently used for high-speed rotating machines because of its frictionless property. But the magnetic bearing system needs feedback controller for stabilization. This paper presents a robust controller design by using linear matrix inequality for magnetic bearing system which shows the control performance and robust stability under the physical parameter perturbations. To the end, the validity of the designed controller is investigated through computer simulation.

Waste landfill is so loose that it may cause the insufficient bearing capacity and the differential settlement. And so, characteristics and conditions of the ground should be considered in applications of ground improvement in waste landfill. In this paper, analysis of field tests as the static loading test and the bearing capacity test were performed. In result, PG(Pack Grouting) pile method is proved effective and economic, because it could bring about the increase of end bearing capacity, the prevention of differential settlement and increase of density by expansion of pile.

In completely weathered granite gneiss,8 of 40cm cast-in-situ concrete piles are constructed, and static pile load tests are executed on the piles to study the bearing behavior of rock-socketed piles. Subsurface explorations are carried out on the test site in three phases, in which 14 borehole investigations as well as the seismic investigation are performed. Rock socketd depths of the piles in the weathered rocks are varied as 3m, 6m and 9m to separate the shaft resistance from the end bearing resistance, and for a couple of piles, styrofoam of 10cm thickness is installed under the pile point to eliminate the effect of the end resistance. Strain gages are instrumented on re-bars to pick-up the transferred loads along the pile length. From the results of the pile load tests, the allowable shaft resistance and the allowable end bearing values of weathered rocks are proposed as $8.6t/m^2\;and\; 84t/m^2$, respectively. The empirical equation relating the elastic modulus of rock mass with the uniaxial compressive strength of the rock specimen is also proposed for the weathered rocks.

In recently designed diesel engines, the running conditions for piston-pin bearings have become severe because of the higher combustion pressure and increased temperature. Moreover, the metal removal from the bushing material has strongly reduced the ability of the antifriction material to accept asperity contacts. Therefore, it is necessary to find ways of reducing wear scar on the connecting-rod small-end bushing and piston-pin boss bearing related to the higher combustion pressure on the power cell of an engine. In this work, the position and level of material removal from the surfaces of the bushing and bearing under such severe operating conditions - for example, maximum power and torque conditions of a passenger car diesel engine - are estimated for several combinations of surface roughness. First, piston-pin rotating motion is investigated by calculating the friction coefficient at piston-pin bearings, the oil film thickness, and the frictional torques induced by hydrodynamic shear stress. Subsequently, the wear scarring on the surfaces of a connecting-rod small-end bushing and two piston-pin boss bearings related to piston-pin rotational motion is numerically calculated under the maximum power and torque operating conditions. This work is helpful to determine the reasonable surface roughness of the bushing and bearing for reducing wear volume occurring at the interface between a bearing and a shaft.

Is this study, results of static pile load tests of in-situ cast piles in weak or uncemented sedimentary rock layers have been analyzed and presented. Consdierations on the characteristics of soils sedimentary rocks have been made. From the measurements of strain gauges and extensometers the relationship of unit skim friction versus displacement and that of unit end bearing versus displacement have been obatined to verity the characteristics of bearing capacity of this uncemented sedimentary rock layers. Also, a comparison has been made between ultimate skin friction in compression and tension.

This study describes the evaluation results of pile length ratio and N value on the bearing capacity of drilled shafts in cohesionless soil. The bearing capacity ratio in Meyerhof's formula is affected only by the length ratio, and it is equally evaluated a sharing ratio of the end bearing capacity and the skin friction. NAVFAC's formula shows that the pile length influences both end bearing capacity and the skin friction, but pile length is also found to be a more influence factor on the end bearing capacity. Especially, it was found that the effect of pile length factor was larger than the effect of N value and pile diameter. FHWA's formula was evaluated to reflect the influence factor by skin friction more positively than other formulas at calculation the bearing capacity. It was also confirmed that the influence of the skin friction is larger when the ultimate bearing capacity is evaluated.

In this study the behavior of piles with an extended head is invested experimentally using reduced-scale model tests. Special attention is given to verifying the increase of end bearing capacity of piles with spreading head. Model piles and extended head plates made of steel pipe were used in this study. Bearing capacity of piles is regarded as only end bearing capacity. The study analyzed the tendency of single and group pile of bearing capacity compared with the existing PHC pile, and examined optimum effect of extended head.

A series of acyclic polyethers bearing amide end-groups and lipophilic alkyl chains (3-5) were successfully synthesized with quantitative yields. Based upon the transport experiment in a bulk liquid membrane (BLM) system and solvent extraction, a very high selectivity of Pb2+ over other transition metal cations was observed. Measurement of thermodynamic parameters for complexation in methanol at 25 ℃ gave a strong evidence for excellent selective complexation for lead ion over other transition metal ions.

The engine bearing transmits the powers from cylinder to crankshaft with small clearance between con-rod and crankpin. The minimum oil film thickness is a significant parameter in the operation of bearing. The contact pressure of bearing should be considered for the reason that elastic deformation of bearing be caused by contact pressure of bearing. There are important factors which are maintaining of minimum oil film thickness expecting of the length of maximum and minimum oil film thickness with changing of the loads to keep running normally. Furthermore, this study is very crucial to develop the design of engine bearing and crankshaft system.

The Smart bi-directional pile load test with variable end plate overcomes the shortcoming of the Osterberg cell test. It is possible that the ultimate bearing capacity of piles can be known by using two different end plates. The first step is to measure end bearing capacity with smaller end plate and the second step is similar to the conventional O-cell test. In this study, model test was performed to evaluate the smart bi-directional pile load test in sand. Vertical displacement of the model pile were messured at the axial loading condition.
